Stupid or not, there's apparently a quota of little runts to be shown, judging by all those flashbacks of most of the main characters. Almost a given it'd happen to Ruri as well were it not for the imoutos.

I find it hilarious how some people can complain about getting something for free. The people who work for the fan sub groups are often trying to balance work and school while still finding the time to put out a quality product for zero pay.

I've tried fansubbing and by far the worst part is listening to basement dwelling douchebags who want the latest ep done and perfect about 10 min after the raw comes out.

That is absolutely wrong. Not everyone has an interest in the books. I haven't read them, and you're saying it would be my fault for not knowing what will happen in upcoming episodes? Spoilers are spoilers.

How'd you feel when you found out Aeris dies, before you actually saw it in-game?
Oh, crap. I did it too...
